Hi, I’m Ian!

I am a UX Researcher and Interaction Designer who gives a damn.

I am focused on providing my best possible thinking on every project, and am an advocate for stretching the available resources to their limit. There are always tradeoffs, but creativity is a team sport and we all win together.

I've worked with clients of all sizes

"It was an absolute pleasure to collaborate with Ian.

His commitment to human-centered design, thoughtfulness towards asking the most important questions, and ability to detect the critical signals among all of the data he collected really helped our team with some high-priority decisions. Moreover, Ian’s research informed our team’s roadmaps going forward.

He was able to adapt to working across different types of materials - a live product, the product in staging, and prototypes - to gather an incredible amount of insights.

Creativity is connecting observation with imagination.

Discovering the best possible solutions requires using design thinking, observation, and interviewing to uncover insights, and diligence, collaboration, and focus to keep evolving and refining the product. Each step in the process helps us think a little more creatively.
